Alternative text:

Afib shows lack of P waves; Aflutter has regular QRS complexes and sawtooth patterns which resemble P waves but there are too many of them; MAT: P waves are present but they have different shapes reflecting their different origins in the atrial wall. Each of the P wages is followed by a QRS complex.
